There have been two recent fatal vehicle accidents in my small rural community, both involving minors and a very high quantity of alcohol. The one this past weekend was a 15 year old, drunk, who "failed to negotiate a curve" and ended up with his brains splattered on the windshield. The previous one had a 17 year old drunk driver, a minor female passenger and a 14 year old riding in the back of the pickup. This vehicle also "failed to negotiate a curve." The 14 year old was dead at the scene. The 17 year old has been charged with vehicular homicide. He is being tried as an adult.

Do you think the intoxicated teen should spend the rest of his life in jail? (Relating back to the discussion about punishment.)

I don't, but I also don't think you should be allowed to drive at 17.

i definitely don't think teens should be tried as adults since the judgment function of the brain isn't mature until age 25.

Each night when I go to bed, I drift off into a world of magical chrome peas.

I was reminded of it yesterday as XH had finally sent final divorce papers (he told me)
Can someone explain the lyrics? Is it two different ppl talking to each other? Bcuz i dont see how it wd make sense otherwise as one part will be about leaving n then the next will be smthing abt the other person wanting to leave?

First he says something about himself, then he says something about her/him.

I would give you my love, everything you do is a lie

I would follow you anywhere, but you have to be free

The lyrics are messy. This is much better :D

I finally got my recorder out, and recorded myself singing, and I sound terrible. :cry:

I sounded all nasally and off-key, probably because my nose is near-constantly stuffy. Also, my voice has barely changed at all. If anything, I sound more like a little kid than ever.
